This IEP Section Should Never Be Empty","description":"Parents and teachers\u2014this one IEP mistake happens all the time. The Parent Concerns section is often left blank or filled with \u201cNo concerns at this time.\u201d That\u2019s not just wasted space\u2014it\u2019s a missed opportunity to shape the entire IEP. When the Parent Concerns section is used the right way, it does what IDEA law is meant to do: meet a child\u2019s unique needs and prepare them for further education, employment, and independent living. That\u2019s why this section should never be empty. Here\u2019s what I want you to do next: \ud83d\udc49 Parents: Go grab your child\u2019s IEP and look at the Parent Concerns section. \ud83d\udc49 Teachers: Check your students\u2019 IEPs today. \ud83d\udc49 Everyone at the IEP table: Ask yourself\u2014does this section truly reflect what the child needs?
